Percarbonate-periodate system: A novel and efficient “oxidant-oxidant” strategy for selective oxidation of micropollutants in water

The development of effective and selective oxidation technology in complex water matrices is crucial for water ecological security. This study reports for the first time the synergistic use of "oxidant-oxidant" about sodium percarbonate (SPC) and periodate (PI) to selectively degrade organic micropollutants. The SPC/PI system showed degradation rates of 0.0946-0.2978 min
